A verandah and balcony have been added to the front of the dwelling, otherwise the present appearance (1941) is very little changed from the photograph, and it is in a good state of preservation". There is also a hand drawn map of the location of the house on the back of the photograph. John Acraman was a prominent businessman in the colony of South Australia. He had diverse business interests including coastal and River Murray shipping, insurance, pastoral management, agents for Guinness Stout. He was a keen sportsman, on the Board of Governors of St Peter's College, collector of fine arts and one of the oldest members of the Adelaide Club.
